The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for providing a video stream to one or more communication sessions. In one implementation, the system may include a video recording device, a memory storing instructions, and a processor configured to execute the instructions. The instructions may comprise instructions to activate the video recording device and receive a video stream therefrom, buffer the video stream in an allocated portion of the memory, allow access to the buffered video stream for use in a first communications session, continue buffering the video stream after the buffered video stream has been accessed for use in the first communications session, and allow access to the buffered video stream for use in a second communications session.
